Wow Alex, thanks for the info
- I have been wondering about this very point for a while: how to get a JAR ATPL for a Irish expat flying with the Regionals in the US.
I am about to get my ATP under FAA (and ICAO) but still have a good bit to go to log 1500 hours flying part 25 (I assume JAR 25 aircraft is the same as FAA Part 25 i.e. Transport category jet cert. for 2 pilots e.g. EMB-145). Now you say "1500hrs on aircraft certified (by the JAA)" - I assume my situation counts for this time.
So I guess my question is then the same as s2h: "This will all be distance based learning, I believe with my current experience I don't need to attend any ground schooling, just lots of studying and exam writing! Any help?"
Does anyone have any advice on how to go about all this? I assume I can start prepping on the Theoretical stuff right away i.e. before getting the 1500 hrs in Transport Cat.
